he took a plexi blank and cut away all the bits that didn't look like a custom pickguard...

Just been out in the shed about to start doin some glossing, and found the laminate around the edge of the neck slot is cracking and lifting. I have no idea why this would lift.
I've rubbed in some Tite-bond, and sanded it back and started re-colouring it.
I am now thinking whether or not I should bind it. But then I probably won't get a good match on the binding colour, as well as the need to get a binding(purfling cutter) knife as the binding jig/s on my Dremel won't get into the corners.

Anything to do with the air temp in the shed? I move my builds out during the day as the temp soars considerably.

Hi Andrew,
It never stays in the shed. All my kits get ferried back inside the house when work is done.
It's probably more to do with the air temp in Vic as a whole, it's been a bit up and down this year.
I did leave it out there for a few hours the other day while I let the wipeon Poly cure. So maybe that's when it happened.

Applying Glossy Finish, wipe on Minwax.
The cracked laminate repair and recolour is also coming along.
